Right now you’re either really happy that this is an option or you’re terrified of this bold new direction in the interview process. Well, I hope you’re thrilled because you’ve got nothing to worry about that you wouldn’t in a face-to-face interview — and maybe even have an advantage or two!

No traveling necessary. Instead of having to deal with the stress of driving to the company’s building, you can relax at home to prepare for your interview. Pretty neat, right?

You’re in control of your environment. After all, you’re on your home turf. You decide how to portray yourself, including lighting and background. Get the best angle, use natural lighting, and sit in a quiet room where no one will bother you during your interview. Keep the shot tight to focus on on the best feature in the room — you!

Just like an in-person interview, you need to look the part. You must look professional from head-to-toe — and I do mean down to your toes. You don’t want to be all business at the top and party on the bottom. Treat the way you dress and present yourself as if you are in a face-to-face interview.

Use the picture-in-picture option to monitor yourself. Check to make sure you are presenting your best side. Watch your facial expressions to ensure you seem approachable and engaged. Look directly into the camera whenever possible. Pay attention to the feed and make sure you are keeping miscellaneous noise down to a minimum, such as rustling papers or background noise.

Show off your tech-savvy side. Here is your opportunity to show how comfortable you are with technical equipment and the process. If you don’t know anything about the video equipment — now is the time to learn! Even if you don’t currently have any video interviews lined up, learn how to use the equipment now, so if you hop on a call you’re a natural. Practice interviewing with friends who can give you honest feedback.

Just think of this as a regular interview with the added bonus of getting to show off your slick high-tech skills. (And just think, no sweaty handshake at the end!) Remember: you’re tech- savvy…you can do this!
